phenry194 -> determine service status (10/7/2008 5:56:49 PM) I wanted to know if there is a powershell script that I can run against a collection of machines that will tell me the status of a particular service.  I know you can look at all the services of a particular machine, but I want to look at one service on a group of machines.  I am pretty new to PowerShell, but I figure there is something out there.  Thanks!  : )

SAPIENScripter -> RE: determine service status (10/8/2008 7:30:12 AM) Use the Get-WMIObject to  get service objects.  Since you only want a particular service, you would use something like this: get-wmiobject win32_service -computername SERVER01 -filter "name='spooler'" | Select SystemName,State To process a text list of computers, get-content servers.txt | foreach { get-wmiobject win32_service -computername SERVER01 -filter "name='spooler'" | Select SystemName,State }

phenry194 -> RE: determine service status (10/8/2008 7:21:21 PM) Ok, so with your input this is what I came up with: $computers = get-content "c:\temp\facrecPCs.txt" foreach ($computer in $computers) { get-wmiobject win32_service -computername $computer -filter "name='datbase gateway'" | Select SystemName,Name,State | out-file f:\powershell\facrec.txt -append} What I would like to know is how I can generate a report without it printing the headers above each entry like it is doing with the script above.  I tried a number of things but no luck.  Is there a way to do this?  Thanks!  : )
